The Warning 'Dance Moms' Star Abby Lee Miller Gave Todd Chrisley About Prison

The dance coach had a little experience to offer the new inmate.

Abby Lee Miller has some wise words for Todd and Julie Chrisley as they adjust to living in prison.

The former Dance Moms coach, who spent several months in prison back in 2017 and 2018 over a variety of fraud charges, chatted with Entertainment Tonight's Denny Directo about her fellow reality stars' fate, hypothesizing that they probably aren't adjusting very well.

"He's very bougie," Miller said of the disgraced Chrisley Knows Best star, who was also convicted on multiple fraud and tax evasion charges alongside his spouse. "He is not going to be able to handle, like, the soap and the towels."

But, having firsthand experience with what Todd—and his wife, of course—is going through, Miller suspects that he'll find a way around the more difficult changes. "I think he'll do some trade outs," she suggested. "There's a way to survive in there."

The former inmate also chatted with Todd directly ahead of the couple reporting to prison earlier this year, revealing they exchanged a few DMs at the time in which she warned him to "be careful."

Going to prison as a celebrity, Miller said, comes with its own unique set of challenges. For example, when she reported to prison, she said nobody wanted to come get her from the front. "There were volunteers that come and give you a tour and all that...no one would come except my dear friend, Michelle," she shared.

Today, Savannah Chrisley, the couple's 25-year-old daughter, is the head of the family, and has recently teased that a look into their "new normal" is coming, likely in the form of a new reality series that would follow the cancelation of their original two.
